Heather is so tragic. It appears that she's an alcoholic with mental health issues and codependency who doesn't think twice about mixing prescription pills and booze.

Ageing is hard. Ageing in Hollywood when you're Heather Locklear and you used to be known as one of the most beautiful women in the world - it would be excruciating when you're as insecure as she appears to be. She's back dating some guy she knew in high school after Tommy Lee, Richie Sambora, David Spade, Jack Wagner, a plastic surgeon and who else knows...she can't hack it alone and she really, really, needs to learn to.

Her spells in rehab haven't stuck, she's been in this same cycle for a solid 10 years. It seems to me that work kept Heather on the straight and narrow. She was Aaron Spelling's 'lucky penny' but now that penny has tarnished and Aaron isn't here anymore to save her with work. If he was alive, you can bet your last dollar she would be working for him.

It is sad. For her sake and the sake of her daughter, I hope she can pull through.

I watch the nightly reruns of TJ Hooker on FETV and find it hard to reconcile the Heather Locklear of today with the innocent good girl that Officer Stacy Sheridan was. She was awfully young when Aaron Spelling discovered her. I think she was only 20 or so. That image has probably been almost impossible to live up to, and years later she starts to crack.

Maybe this incident will finally be the wake up call she needs. Only time will tell.

It's sad that things have fallen apart for her in recent years. I take it she mainly likes bad boys and most of her relationships wind up being toxic. The current guy she's with she dated back in high school in the 70's. Heather has been working since about 1979 with commercials, guest appearances etc...Aaron was her big break when he discovered her at 20.

Add to that alcohol and substance issues, and what likely is very low self-worth. I hope she can turn over a new leaf.

Me too. Aaron always kept her in steady work, now that he is gone, she lost her steady rock. Speaking of Spelling, I remember one time seeing some photos of Heather's high school yearbook and in one she is doing the famous Farrah pose in a swimsuit, but she is wearing a fake nose and glasses for a comedy gag. Little did she know, she would be working for the man that made Farrah a household name and would do the same for her.

I hope she stays for as long as she has to. On one of the news shows today, it was said that Heather was only going for her daughter's sake. I hope that she finds the will to conquer rehab for HERSELF, first and foremost.
